However, the plan view still shows the original untrimmed rafters, whereas 3D and sections show rafters as trimmed. How do I get the plan view to show the rafters trimmed?
Thanks for your help

Ralph: Would Objective allow me to split those rafters to another sloping roof, thus producing rafters with non-vertical cuts at the place where it meets the other roof?

Alternatively, you could use the Rotate tool to temporarily tilt all the rafters over so the required cut is vertical in the floor plan, and then rotate them back into place after the cut is made. If you make the roof an assembly, you can use "Go to Model" to automatically return the rafters to their original orientation.
